THE YACHT
Built by the monks of Saint Oros in Mount Athos, Morgkan is a "trechantiris", a traditional boat designed for the Aegean Sea.
Characterised by their great stability, strength and their spacious interior, the trechantiris have ruled the Greek seas for centuries, as fishing boats and for transport. Traditional fishermen favour it over other types of boat, simply for its stability, rendering it the safest on what can sometimes be unpredictable waters.
Fully refurbished in 2012-2013, Morgkan is especially adapted to yacht cruises. Thanks to its generous width, it offers 2 comfortable double berth en suite cabins, one lovely 4 berth cabin, suitable for children and adults alike, and a particularly attractive living/kitchen space.
The captain's quarters are at a distance from the passenger area, thus affording the privacy and discretion required, as well as the peace and quietness essential for the smooth running of any cruise.
Aboard Morgkan you can also enjoy an outdoor living area and a superb sundeck.
THE CAPTAIN
Born in France, Bertrand Benoît started sailing from a very young age. After 15 years on board classic sailing boats, such as Errol Flynn's famous "Karenita", working side by side with experienced sailors, he decided to ride the waves on his own boat.
He anchored his Morgkan in Amorgos, in the heart of the Aegean, which, in his eyes, is the most beautiful sailing area in the world. He's a licensed professional skipper and knows all the secrets of the Greek islands!
